They quickly set me up to check out my suspension issue, had initially given me all the quotes on what they might attempt, alignment, diagnosis; next day I was surprised to find an entire email detailing their recommended work.

They're only missing a waiting room with weird sparkling water and Aldi beverages in a cooler!

My husband and I went here while we lived in Lafayette. I'm not a cars person and my husband sort…read moreof is because his dad is one. So, if my husband trusts them then I do too. The men here are very polite and are honest. I had a bumper kind of hanging off the front of my car and the gentlemen let me know that he might be able to fix it. No promises but he'd try. He got it done. It's been a few months now and it's still good. I also had a few other problems with my vehicle totaling $1000+. Now, there are definitely some places that tell you that and it makes you stop and think. And I did. But, I went forward with it. I had a lot of driving to do and didn't want to take any risks (doing a long-ish distance move that would require driving back and forth for several weekends), my husband thought they were probably right (although he didn't check the car. Just his opinion), and to be quite honest...the men here just seem sincere. That's truly it. So, I'm not a real cars person but so far so good. If something happens to my car that seems related to what I got done, I'll come back and update.

Prices are always in affordable range. But most importantly I know my car is in good hands. He just gives the nice grandpa vibe! Who doesn't love that!! Plus his location is right downtown!

You hear about mechanics finding additional "issues", looking to inflate their bill but these dudes saved me a ton of money by spotting loose tire rods that had caused significant cupping.

I could tell they really took pride in their work and wanted to leave me as a happy customer and I am. I'll be back for sure and will continue to recommend them to friends and family.

so grateful for the fine folks at guaranteed automotive…read more my wife, 7 week old baby, and puppy were driving from cincy to chicago after our first road trip as a family of 4. engine completely gave out on 65N. we were in a crisis, on the side of the interstate with semis speeding by. we got a tow to the nearest mechanic (20+ miles) - and it happened to be guaranteed automotive. they were busy as could be, but still managed to let us know that our catalytic converter went out. they needed to order the part and could get it fixed for us - but it'd be a couple days. the real problem was that it was purdue's move in weekend - and even though enterprise allowed me to book and check into a reservation online - not a single location had a rental car in all of lafayette. same issue with every rental company in the area. what a shame. we needed to get back to chicago bad, especially with a crying newborn. after several frustrating calls with enterprise and hurtz, we decided we'd just uber on home ($270) and come back for the car when it was ready. but out of nowhere, guaranteed auto offered us their little loaner and let us take it back to chicago for 3 days while our car was getting fixed. saved us some money and was very convenient, after a long stressful day. we're so appreciative for the kindness and efficiency we witnessed with guaranteed. i hope i never step foot in there again, but if you're reading this and you're broke down in the area - they'll get you right. only somewhat negative feedback from me is that they're closed on saturday and sunday - and waited to call until friday around closing time to let us know the car was ready for pickup. so had to wait a couple extra days to pickup, whereas if i knew it was going to be ready i could have been there friday afternoon. oh well. pretty good, not bad, can't complain. thanks y'all!
